THE STATE PRISON.
Meeting of the DfrectOrs-EXtra Pr
 cautions Against Further Escapes.

Meeting of the Directors-Extra Pre- cautions Against Further Escapes. A meeting of the State prison directors was held on Thursday with all the members present as follows: Francis Wayland oi New Haven, Nathan M. Belden of Wilton, Cyrus B. Newton of Stafford, Willis s. Bron, son of Hartford, Thomas Sanford of Red ding and Thomas T. Hewitt of Wethersield. The session was long one and many impor- tant questions were discussed. The recent escapes from the prison were considered at length and methods to prevent further escapes were freely talked over in the hopes of deciding upon the most efficient It was
 finally decided to authorize the warden to employ extra guards about the prison and to have erected high fence around the prison property outside of the wall. To further aid in preventing escapes the warden was in work outside the prison in "tiger suits"- black and grey stripes around the legs and body, the same as worn at Sing Sing.
 It was also voted to make change in the hospital department. For several years Wes- ley w. Bishop, the Norwich wife murderer and companion of Kate Cobb, has acted as hospital steward but it has been found neces- 0~-J AA~-AO SANH3S1 "AASAA ID SCA GoAA lO result for the good of the institution. It was discovered that Bishop was using the drugs under his care and he had frequently been found stupefed from the effects of chloral. After considering the matter it was voted to appoint Gerrit w. Chaffee, of Weth- ersGeld, to the position of hospital steward and office clerk, and to instruct the warden to employ a competent drug clerk for @ few months, or until MT. Chaffee be- comes acquainted with the drugs and the manner of preparing prescriptions. In this way it is hoped to have person always in at tendance who is competent to attend to the many slight cases of illness which are con- tinually needing attention.
 Other minor matters came before the direc- tors and were attended to.
 Governor Lounsbury has not yet appointed a successor to General Thomas McManus, who resigned as member of the board on his ap- pointment to an office in Washington. It was expected that the office would have been filled before the August meeting. The name of the new director will probably be an- nounced in a short time

m1DDLET0WN,s CEMETERY.
A Beautiful Home for the Dead.

A Beautiful Home for the Dead.
 Middletown has no park worth speaking of, but when it comes to burial place for
 the dead no Ilace in New England can excel it in the beauty of the Indian Hill cemetery This place of sepulture is in the form of a vast mound rising to an elevation of nearly 250 feet above the Connecticut river ,and half
 mile from the center of the city toward the west. The association took it's name from an old tradition, that on it's summit the
 Indians once lighted their council fires and deposited the bones and implements of their
 chiefs in its grounds. Many of these imple-
 ments have been found buried in the earth
 when digging for graves. There are about
 forty-fve acres in the plot. It commands
 magnificent view of the river and of the
 country for miles around Wadsworths
 tower can be seen thirty miles or more away
 There were 700 lots laid out at the opening of
 the cemetery in 1850, and there is space for
 1000 more whenever needed. These
 lots contain each twenty-five square
 feet beautiful mortuary chapel, free to all, stands at the head of the northern entrance, costing some S2O,- 900, the gift of the late Mrs. Samuel Rus sell. Three elegant tombs built of Portland stone adorn one of the avenues. They con- tain the remains of the deceased members of the Alsop, Chauncey and Mutter families. Further on is 2 fine soldiers monument in the plot allotted to the Mansfield post, G. A. R., and erected by them. All over the l grounds beautiful monuments in endless va- riety mark the resting places of those gone | before. The avenues all bear Indian names, supplied by Dr. Barrett an English scientist | and well posted in Indian lore. The grounds | are handsomely laid out and an unobstruct- ,d view is had of the city below from most my point of observation. Hartford Post.

THE IRON HORSE.
The Little Shepaug in its Role Of the Missing Link-The Big Roads and the Little

The Little Shepaug in its Role of the Missing Link-The Big Roads and tn e Little Ones.
 And now the papers make bold to say tIat
 'after all the Starbuck combination did not care SO very much for the Shepaug. To be sure it may seem to the uninstructed as, with that out, link missing in their scheme of a great Montreal and Rutland system-bu after all is it? A glance at the railroad map will show that it is of no consequence. The Housatonic goes far into Massachusetts and has no tide water competitor, if we except for part of the way the Naugatuck, and that is effectually shut off by adverse railroad in- fuences. The Shepaug has no big part to play in the railroad game unless by an exten- sion which would not be thought of by any rival of the Starbuck combination. It is safest for all parties to let it alone, although the Consolidated road had, it is probable, much rather have it kept as it is now than become more of local feeder for the Housa- tonic by connection with the Connecticut Western"
 Superintendent McNeil, of Hartford, still asserts that Starbuck has not got the She- paug.
 The Hartford Post says as follows: It is the opinion of shrewd observer that all the speculation about the Shepaug has been in the air. The fact that it was made so much of was due perhaps to the desire Of the Star buck combination to divert attention to other fields so that those in which they sought to work most effectually would not be raided by the whole of the opposing force. The great idea of the big railroad companies seemed to be to get all the little Connecticut roads into their possession so as to prevent local as we'll as through competition. It is a ques tion whose pocketbook is the largest, and the time has probably come to call halt. No one road cares to be burdened with so many heavy responsibili- ties and individual capitalists outside of the Standard Oil organization to take hold of the work of absorption do not seem plenty. Not only is the purchase of railroads of late talk en to mean chance for advantageous com bination and monopoly, but also as matter of necessity due to the absence of profitable investments. Even if in roads like the Lit tie Derby the capital has to lie for several years with little if any profit the returns af- ter that will be very tempting. Monopoly and fair prices will roll up large sums in a brief period.
 It is agreed that the Starbuck purchase of the Shepaug is ''off" and that affairs will go along much as formerly"

Ut is the mucous membrane, that wonderful semi-ud envelope surrounding the delicate tissues of the air and food passages, that Catarrh makes it's stronghold Once established. it eats into the very vitals, and renders life but long-drawn breath of misery and disease, dulling the of hearing, trammelng the power of speech, destroy killing the refined pleasures of taste. Ins 3iousy, by creeping from simple cold in the head, it as saults the membranous lining and envelops the bones, eating through the delicate coats and caus- ing inflammation, sloughing and death. Nothing short of total eradication will health to the patient, and all alleviatives simply procrasti- mated sufferings, leading to a fatal termination.
